You Are Busy, But . . .

I do not know a single person in Children's Ministry who is not busy. There is so much to do when you work and serve in the Children's Ministry. You have to pray, study God's Word, choose curriculum, plan your year with regular and special events, pay close attention to security and safety issues, more and more there is time spent counseling children and families - or referring them to people who are able to do this, training volunteers and the often-times seemingly unending recruiting of those volunteers. As I said, I do not know a single person in Children's Ministry who is not busy.

And, on top of all these things you often try to find ways to engage parents, train parents and equip them to hand down the faith to their children. 

So, when someone - such as I - talks about also equipping grandparents to hand down the faith, it can seem and feel overwhelming. Why would anyone - such as I - even think about adding another thing to your already busy schedule?
Well, because grandparents are the second most influential people in the lives of children. When we engage and equip them to hand down the faith, it makes a huge difference in the lives of the children and families in our ministries!

I will be speaking about this very subject at the CMConference North America - you will find all the details and info about registering at this link. If you have not already signed up to attend, please do so now. I know, another thing to add to your busy schedule, but this one will provide the tools and information you need to be able to cover all those things I mentioned and allow you to connect with others who are serving the children and families in their churches - just like you.

Do not miss this conference! You will be so glad you made time for this one!
